I agree with Dr. Shureih. Follow your surgeon's advice to achieve the best results possible in his or her hands. I personally do not use a boppy pillow for my patients but I recommend what's right for my patients based on my experience and techniques.Earl Stephenson Jr. MD DDS FACS
Thank you for your question, after your procedure you won't be able to sit for a couple of weeks, the boppy pillow will allow you to sit for small periods of time without compromising your results. By sitting on this pillow you are not sitting on a flat or hard surface which would kill the recently grafted fat cells and create dents or unevenness.Most plastic surgeons recommend you purchase a boppy pillow for you to take care of your results, both you an your surgeon want you to achieve the most positive outcome after a procedure.

Thank you for your photos. I think you have an issue with a wide chest that cannot be solved with surgery. You do have some fat of your abdomen that can be easily liposuction. This modest amount of fat can be added to your hips to slightly improve their fullness. From the side your body contour...
Thanks for your pictures. A very strict vegetarian diet(no meat) could be a problem because of the lack of protein. More than likely your healing should be fine. A tummy tuck will serve you well but you do not have enough fat to achieve your desired result. Earl Stephenson Jr MD DDS FACS
All medical conditions should be treated prior to elective surgery.Find a board certified plastic surgeon who performs hundreds of Brazilian buttlifts and liposuction procedures each year. Look for great reviews and great before and after pictures.Kenneth Hughes, MDLos Angeles, CA
When doing comprehensive 360 liposuction of the trunk before a BBL, I most often use drains.This is because there is always a chance for there to be a seroma. A seroma is a pocket of clear serous fluid that sometimes develops in the body after liposuction or surgery in general. By placing one...
